Abstract :
Integrated optics can provide low-loss broadband optical delay much more readily than electronics. On the other hand, electronic integrated circuits offer unparalleled levels of signal gain and signal processing on a single die. The hybrid electro-optical solutions benefiting from best of both domains can provide significant improvements overs solutions solely in one domain. In this paper, we present two examples of such hybrid electro-optical solutions.
